About: I’ve had multiple pets since I was young and always had a great love for all animals. I have had my dog since I was 6 years old and been taking care of her since then. Neighbors and family members have always trusted me taking care of their cats, dogs, bunnies, and birds and I love meeting and forming a connection with them all! I also have experience with senior and special needs as my dog had some behavioral issues in the last few years of her life and she has taught me a lot about having compassion for everyone. 🩷 My school year is over so I am currently home for the summer and will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I also am available on breaks as well and would love to walk your dog during those times!

I have a big fenced yard for your dog to run around and play in! My both love all types of pets and are super welcoming.
About: I have been pet sitting for five years. Caring for animals and helping others in the process is something I truly enjoy; animals are my passion. I love interacting with them because the love they give is the most sincere love any living being on earth can offer—which is why, whenever I look after a pet, it feels like I am caring for my own family. Currently, I am dedicating myself full-time to pet care. I am dedicating twelve hours daily to care for pets and can also offer overnight stays. I can crate your dog if needed. I can also provide walks, snacks, toys, beds, grooming and air conditioning. I can fit your specific needs.

I would love to take care of your pets and give them some extra love, they deserve it! I am currently working per diem as an RN while I put myself through nurse practitioner school, because of this my schedule is flexible! I am available most weekends and weekdays. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with my boyfriend and two cats. I spoil our kitties and would love to spoil your pet(s) while I care for them as well!

It's been great getting to know them both & I highly recommend their services!”

About: I’ve had pets all my life. I’m very invested in the wellbeing and safety of all pets. I give my pets lots of love and attention and I will make sure to do the same with your pet. They hold such a special place in our heart and therefore are deserving of the best treatment. Every dog or cat I’ve had in my life I’ve made sure to give plenty of exercise and play time. And with your pets I will treat them as one of my own. I have a great love and passion for all animals and am excited to meet your fur babies. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of availability to be there for you and your pets when needed. I will post my schedule on the Rover app. I have two cats and I always make sure they have a clean litter pan and bowl, fresh water and food. I would feel most comfortable walking clients pets on leashes unless there is a fenced in back yard. I found that the invisible fence to not be as effective. One thing I’ll always ask clients before meeting or entering their home is if your pet is comfortable meeting strangers. Another thing I will ask is does your pet have any food allergies. Safety is my number one priority.
“Emily and I met for a meet and greet rather soon after connecting on here and discussing an upcoming need. My dog instantly loved her and I asked her if we ciuld start with occasional walks leading up to the overnight stays so that he can grow comfortable with her between now and then. She was very communicative during her pop in visit and she took the time to ensure everything was locked and handled correctly. She noticed a behavior of his and took the time to ask me if it was normal / okay. She is clearly very caring and attentive to detail!”

The average cost of Dog Walking in New Britain is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $22 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in New Britain. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in New Britain after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Britain. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
